I always thought i wasn’t a skirt person, till now......the three pleat skirt is just awesome and is true to size...made a muslin first cause i wouldn’t believe it could ever fit me, my tummie sticking out, amongst other things.....well the muslin fitted like a glove, just a perfect fit....no changes to make what so ever...can you believe that?! I made it in a soft linen with a bit of body.....someone in the TAL sewing community on facebook said i also can wear it in winter with thick tights and big ankle boots.....yep i’m sold..... Oh just one more thing....the instructions are just perfect and very easy to understand, the pattern itself is designed by a pattern genius, no really......first time EVER found a skirt pattern that fits me......thanks Anki!
